Here’s the thing about folks speedrunning the creative process with AI:

I could go to the beach every morning and put a grain of sand in a cup. They’d take their cup to the beach and fill it one day; but the point isn’t to have a cup of sand. It’s to fill my life with a thousand trips to the beach.

Congratulations!

A lovely idea!

So precious!

Nooooo

Aww, are they rare to see there? We have a rangy one who hangs out in our garden most mornings. He bolts past me when I go put stuff in my outside bin.

Hey. Make that story weirder.

The Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers Association AMENDED RULES for the Nebula Awards Dear Meghan, Earlier today, you received an email titled, “Note from the Board on This Year’s Nebula Rules.” To be clear, SFWA does not support the use of LLM generative models in the production of creative work. The Nebula Award Rules did not reflect our current policy and deeply held beliefs and values, and they were amended to reflect that. With further input, today, we made an important change to the Nebula Awards Rules in two board votes that we would like to share with you:

Previous Text: "Works that are wholly written using generative large language model (LLM) tools are not eligible." New Text: "Works that are written, either wholly or partially, by generative large language model (LLM) tools are not eligible." -and- Previous Text: "Works that used LLMs at any point during the writing process must disclose this upon acceptance of the nomination, and the nature of the technology’s use will be made clear to voters on the final ballot" New Text: "Works that used LLMs at any point during the writing process must disclose this upon acceptance of the nomination, and those works will be disqualified." We will update our posted rules in the coming days to reflect this change.

And just like that, SFWA capitulates. Keep fighting. It works.

This is a truly wild decision to make. It's insulting to all the writers and past winners/nominees.

Listen, maybe you're scared to speak up because you think one day you might get nominated for an award, but here's a newsflash: it's not of the same value if plagiarism-droid assisted work is eligible.

Do not support any of this nonsense.

Keep your head down if you must, but don't acquiesce. ✊🏾

I got rid of mine for this reason. Impossible to clean.

Not the litter mat. All the holes. 🫠

Silksong. Curling up on the sofa beside my SO, cheering him through the platforming and planning boss tactics. The soundtrack! Time well spent.

Do you have plans next summer? My first horror collection, MIX TAPES FROM DEAD BOYS, is coming June 2026 from @journalstone.bsky.social.

A long-haired tabby sits primly on my keyboard and looks at the camera, eyes slightly unfocused.

Maybe a lower dose next time.

Toebean is home and doing greeeaaaat. *drugged smile*

Toebean is enjoying some gabapentin ahead of his surgery checkup today. 🤞

I watched it this morning.

Rewatched The Princess Bride this morning. This film brought me a lot of joy as a child, as did Stand by Me.

Yeah, same.

Oh my god. Awful.

my favorite thing about the benoit blanc movies is that they aren't really about benoit blanc. he is not grappling with demons from his past. we are not getting flashbacks to the husband whose murder he never solved. he just shows up and does his job like mary poppins for homicides

Oh, their loss! Good luck placing it!
